I am a Marine (seated on right) who went to Weather & Rawinsonde School in 1983 with Frank Pupillo and Tina Arrington (on Paul's left) at Chanute AFB. I have found Frank and I would to find Tina Arrington. After Chanute, she was stationed at Diego Garcia in 1984.

I am a retired Marine who has written a just-published book about a little-remembered 1979 typhoon, fuel spill and fire at Camp Fuji, Japan.
The incident left 73 injured, most of them young Marines. Of that number, 54 suffered burns and 13 died. More: http://chashenry.com/fujifire/. The work details not just the origins of the incident and its impact on Marines, but also the ad hoc and altruistic Navy, Air Force and Army rescue response.
Of particular relevance to the Naval Weather Association, two chapters of Fuji Fire: Sifting Ashes of a Forgotten U. S. Marine Corps Tragedy deal with the identification and tracking of Typhoon Tip, which—as you will know—set still-standing records for size, intensity, and low sea-level air pressure. The chapters, I believe, in ways not done so in other writing about Tip, humanize the work of Sailors and Airmen the assigned to the Joint Typhoon Warning Center.
Thinking that the story might interest members of your association, I was wondering if you might consider reviewing Fuji Fire via your newsletter and social media platforms. If so, I would be pleased to email you a pdf review copy of the book.
Thank you for your consideration!
Gratefully, and Semper Fidelis, Chas Henry

Good Morning,
I just found your website because it was mentioned on the AG Facebook page. I was looking for class photos from 2004 A-School in Keesler AFB. I then looked around and saw the Necrology page. I completely understand if this wouldn't qualify, because he did not die in the line of AG duty, but we did have a former AG die in Afghanistan.
Jonathan Gollnitz (http://www.findagrave.com/memorial/97898717/jonathan-alan-gollnitz) served in the fleet and then went to A-School for AG. He was then stationed with me at Lakehurst, NJ as an AG before using the Blue to Green program to join the army. He later died from a suicide bomber in Afghanistan. I completely understand if he doesn't qualify, but wanted to mention it if he does. He was a good friend and a great shipmate.
Thank You, Aaron DeVivo

Greetings Friends,
I just put the last copy of "Midwest Meanderings" in the mail; however, I am assured by the Queen Bee at Zander Press that I can have more copies made - as many as I want. How many do I want? As many as it takes to meet the demands of you, the readers. Many of you already have one or more copies, and perhaps you have wished you had one or two more for a gift to some deserving soul. The book never made the New York Times "Best Sellers" list, (but it should have) and it is not available on Amazon. If you want one you can get one from me. I have the latest pricing information and for $20 (personal checks OK, no credit cards) I can deliver one to your mailbox. If you live in Canada, I will have to smuggle one in, but I visit every year. Price includes an insulated mailing pouch, postage, and the book.
Books may be ordered by e-mail to wxmustang@outlook.com or by phone: 920-756-3919 (land line) or 920-860-4193 (Cell). Personal checks payable to Frenchy Corbeille will be accepted as payment, mail to: R. Claude Corbeille 446 Ridgeway Drive Brillion, WI 54110
The three years include 2012, 2013, and 2014 and all of my weekly "Glimpses of Brillion" are included, along with scintillating tales of hunts and travels, including travel over the Dempster Highway to the shores of the Arctic Ocean. The cover photos are provided by Brillion's own professional photographer and my friend Dave Andre. The front cover depicts the four seasons in my part of the world, starting with trumpeter swans for winter and clockwise to redwing blackbirds for autumn. The back cover (not shown) includes photos of Dave's favorites.
The book is purely non fiction, more of a coffee table book than a cover-to-cover narrative, and all of the words and opinions are mine. Any errors can be attributed to me, but also all of the good stuff.
If you will be wanting one or more, please let me know and I will tally the number of requests prior to putting my printing order in
